Leopard print

I wanted to try to make a leopard print in three colours but it didn't get quite as good as I wanted it to be :b

I used H&M - Ocean Sand as base, Pieces - Golden Chokolate for the print and Tiger - 17 as highlighter.
Does any of you have tips for how to make a good leopard print with three colours? :)

Heavy Metal in Milan

A little update from Milan.
A few days ago I did this mani, Heavy Metal from Pieces. The lacquer is a silver shimmer, darker than normal. Maybe it has a black base, but it's very hard to see because it contains so much shimmer. It's awesome :)
I finished it off with Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat - a polish that I have learned to love(!!!!) very fast - because you don't really have the time to sit and wait for your polish to dry when you're on vacation, at least I don't ;)

It kinda matches a castle we went to see :b

My mani also went with me on some museums :b

Well, that's it for today.
I hope you're all enjoying your holidays.

Lacquers I used yesterday

Hey guys
I lined up the lacquers I used last night to the sponging. Here you can see them :)

The Depend without a visible number is the green to the right

My first sponging + more

Today I came up with this cute design but the tape I used to make straight lines ruined the polish a bit because it wasn't dry enough.
I used the lacquers from Pieces - Soul Petrol, Highland Green & Red Berries and from H&M - White

 Anyway, I ended up removing this mani quite fast and made a mani with stripes and sponging gradient.

 This is my first time to try sponging - at least on nails :b I think it went pretty well except that the neon colours on my pinkie became too dark because there were too many layers of different neon colours.

The colours I used are:
Depend - no. 34, 35, 54, 131, 133, 159, 193, 223, 247, & that green colour again where the number has been worn out
H&M - Purple
Pieces - Red Berries
Models Own - Purple Mystique
Rimmel - Lycra Pro 312 Ultra Violet, 60 Seconds 605 Purple Reign & 60 Seconds 825 Sky High
Kiko - 333
Barry M - 308 Berry Ice Cream
Tiger - no. 17
Sally Hansen - Blue Me Away!
Essie - Turquoise & Caicos
Gosh - 597 Miss Minty
Rival de Loop - 55

Older manicures

I have a couple of pictures of older manicures that I would also like to share.
About three weeks ago I did this manicure:

As you can see I took the photo a couple of days after I made it at it doesn't look that good, but anyway here it is.
I used the following colours in this order to make horizontal stripes:
Pieces - heavy metal
Tiger - colour no. 17
Depend - no. 45
Gosh - 572 Golden bronze
Pieces - Golden chokolate

On top I used Depends crack polish in black. This manicure looked great together with my totally cute giraffe ring and clothes in the style of safari ;)


A little less than a week before I made this manicure. It's the same design as the one you've just seen but with different colours.

For this mani I used the following lacquers to make the stripes in this order:
Gosh - 597 Miss Minty
H&m - Blue (as i recall)
Sally Hansen - 130 Blue Me Away!
Gosh - special edition no. 001 Lavender Love
Rimmel - Lycra Pro no. 312 Ultra Violet
Rimmel - 60 seconds no. 605 Purple Reign

On top I used Depends purple crack polish and finished it off with Gosh - no. 600 Matt Effect Top Coat which is a polish I really adore.


A last mani for now is one I made back in March.

I know it's not pretty around my nails but that's how much I bothered to remove :b
The lacquers used is:
H&m - Pure White
Depend - no. 199, 196 and 54
Rival de Loop - no. 55 (i think, it's a long time ago now :b)
Gosh - 556 Cool Blue

If you have any ideas for what I should do next please write me a comment and I will be happy to make it as good as I can.

Perry the Platapus welcomes you

Hi there!
And welcome
This is my first post at a blog - ever, actually. I'm not really a blogging-kinda-person but I do love nail polish and to make crazy manicures. So I've decided to make a blog where I share my manicures with you.
I'm actually from Denmark but I thought writing in English would make it understandable for more people.
My first manicure I have to show you is one i made Wednesday and it is with Perry the Platapus from the TV-series Phineas & Ferb on Disney Channel. I know, Disney Channel is for children but I think a lot of the shows are awesome e.g. Phineas & Ferb.

For this mani I have used the lacquers:
Gosh - 597 Miss Minty and Special Edition 001 Lavender Love
Sally Hansen - 130 Blue Me Away!
Pieces - Golden Chokolate (I know it's spelled with a c but this is how the lacquer is spelled)
Depend - no. 83, 199 and 115
H&m - Lemon Sorbet and Pure White
Rimmel - 60 seconds no. 625 Sky High
And a black nail art pen from an unknown brand.
On this picture I've used a matte top coat from Gosh to make it easier to see Perry instead of a reflection.
I was also gonna make Perry and his hat om my right hand but I didn't have time and it would probably not have succeeded anyway because I am right-handed.

Well that's it for now, enjoy
Please let me know what you think
